Lyrics Stevie Ray Vaughan

Stevie Ray Vaughan

Wall of Denial

A wall of denial

Is fallin' down

Wo it's fallin' so hard

Down to the ground

Never knew something so strong

Could be washed away by tears

But this wall of denial

Was just built on fear

We've all had our demons

From the garden of white lies

Dressed them amused them

Pullin' wool over our eyes

Go so far as to love them

To keep from letting them go

All the while they we're killin' us

But we couldn't let it show

No matter what the trouble

We carry round inside

We're never safe from the truth

But in the truth we can survive

When this wall of denial

Comes tumblin' down

Down to the ground

Simple things in life

Bring the greatest pleasure

A smile, a kiss

A little baby's laughter

It makes no difference

If we run away in fear

The little things in life hold us so near

No matter what the trouble

We carry round inside

Never safe from the truth

But in the truth we can survive

When this wall of denial

Comes tumblin' down

Yeah this wall of denial

Must tumble down

Down to the ground
